  • Yes, if the speed you go in wouldn’t the speed you go out, you’d be ripped apart.

    In portal (the whole point of this joke), it happens instantly an works like walking through a door. If your hand is through, it’s at the other side and the rest of your body isn’t.

    If you would travel at the same direction and speed of the train, you could step through and be stationary at the other side. If you stand still and the train travels to you, the only “logical” answer is that you fly out the other side or be ripped apart.

    I dislike a lot of the shock advertising they do, but most of what you point out is anecdotal and mostly spread as a laster campaign, because they actually do have an impact on animal welfare and that’s not in the best interest of the ppl behind these laster campaigns.

    About the shelters, what should happen with all the excess pets that are bought and then dumped? At least peta tries to take down bad kennels and does something about the stray population. It’s all nice having a no-kill shelter, but these either don’t take all pets or get to big that it’s just unhygienic and sad. If the shelter refuse any ill or old pet they can’t place, these pets either end up on the street or in a shelter that takes any pet and does euthanize.

    Peta also gets called for stray pets in terrible condition or that are aggressive that probably always have to be put down.

    Their kill rate will probably be quite high, but I have no idea who made up the 80% and what would be included in that number.

    Newer linux games on steam are compiled to run in containers in the same way as a flatpak. They could break it a security patch would break some vague hack in de game, but these should be minimal. These containers are only released ever other year and keep being supported so there isn’t really any serious compatible problem there. The first Linux games on steam like team fortress 2 ran partially on the system libraries and that caused lots of problems, especially when these get older.

    With the snipperred Linux desktop, containers are the only viable solution.


  • The things I bump in the most:

    • Mutability. Everything is passed by ref so imutable and/or copy should be an important factor of the language, but it’s not. Struct vs class also was way to much impact but can both be used for an interface argument but have such different flow.
    • Compatibility is always favored over improvement in the framework design and language. It has obvious pros as we need less porting, but newer functions in the language are often weird to work with and frameworks get replaced instead of improved, making the porting even harder.
    • A lot of features work magically simple until you want some kind of custom behavior and they then become unmanageable complex. Like the default XML serializer where you can do no extension and everything can get serialized, or async function that abstract the threading untill you want to manage multiple parallel function with error checking and you get very weird and confusing code. Thay all work magically easy as long as you use them for nothing more difficult than the examples.
